<P>Back annotation means the changes made with the gate and pin swaps will be reflected into the schematics. When the <B>Back annotation</B> function is executed, the file <B>pcb\gatepin.ban </B>will be red, and the necessary schematics will be modified.</P>

<P>For example: The two pins of a 7400 ttl device have been swapped by using the layout editor. After <B>Back annotation</B> the wires connected to those two 7400 pins in the schematics will be switched.</P>
